Female Journalist Focuses on Hearst Case Miles Explains Search
by Harry Merritt
The bizarre "kidnapping and apparent political conversion
^ of heiress Patricia Hearst was discussed by Newsweek col- umnist Shaiia "Alexander in her lecture here Tuesday evening.
Ms. Alexander, often consid- ered the nation's leading woman journalist, has a vast and varied background in writing, ranging from twenty years with the "once and future" life magazine, to the
editorship of McCall's, and the 1970 publication of her book, The Feminine Eye. Her present plans are to focus her
"feminine eye" on the "one, most current event," the Hearst case, rather than continue her efforts to cope f with the overwhelming rush of
news from day to day.
Ms. Alexander sees the Hearst kidnapping as the coming-together of "all the themes which captured our imaginations and grabbed our hearts" during the tumultuous decade of the Sixties. It is, she said, a confrontation between
"rich and poor, black and white, male and female, the haves and the have-nots." We may view the Hearst story through "fifteen eyes," as "a uniquely California event," and historical event, one of vio- lence, paranoia, crime, hero- ism, the generation gap, "a sexual event, a technological event, "one of rhetoric, negoti- ation," a fiercely fepaale event,
"highly theatrical, and naive."
The chronology of events with which we are now familiar began with the shooting last November of the Oakland Superintendant of Schools, Marcus Foster. Credit for the crime was claimed by a group calling themselves the Symbio- , nese Liberation Army. Two
members of S.L.A., Joseph Remiro and Russell Little, were later arrested and charged with the murder of Foster. San Francisco was then hit by a rash of random street shootings ("the Zebra killings"), again linked with the S.L.A. It was with the early-morning abduc- tion of Patricia Hearst from her Berkeley apartment February 4th, that the S.L.A. attained nationwide notoriety.
Ms. Alexander views the rise i of the S.L.A. as evidence of yet another trend originating in California. "California is the once-and-future America, the El Dorado...all that is most golden" in this country, the fulfillment of "all our promis- es." There is in the United States a "cultural tilt from West to East." Ideas and fads arise along the Pacific shore- line and spread eastward.
One man who saw his' El Dorado in the sunny skies and the redwoods of California was the late William Randolph Hearst, the most powerful and notorious figure in American journalism during the first half of this century. It was in California that Hearst chose to , build "his bizarre dream
castle, San Simeon."
While William Randolph Hearst remains vilified as a symbol of massive wealth and unlimited power, his grand-
• daughter Patricia reached a- dulthood strangely unaware of
the Hearst legend and her grandfather's position in his- tory. It has frequently been noted that she has never seen the film classic "Citizen Kane,"
a thinly-disguised account of Hearst's career. Ms. Alexand- er termed Patty Hearst's abduction a case of "the sins of the grandfather visited on the grandchild unaware of who the grandfather was."
The Hearsts of today had until recently resided in the splendid isolation of suburban Hillsborough, California, an enclave of old money and aristocratic mien referred to by Ms. Alexander as "a hotbed of social rest."
Mere miles away, in the slums of Oakland and San Fransisco, there live people in dire poverty and neglect, people to whom the Hearsts represent all that is unjust and inherently wrong in America.
College radicalism survives in Berkeley, another San Fransis- co suburb. A joining of forces between these groups, the educated and the poor, coupled with the emergence of the S.L.A. The known members of the S.L.A. are predominantly black ex-convicts and political- ly radical, upper-middle class women. The group's leader, Donald DeFreeze, is an es- caped convict who calls himself Marshal Cinque, after the leader of a slave revolt in Cuba in 1839.
The S.L.A. grew out of prison discussion groups, in which DeFreeze took part, radicalized by the visits of leftist Berkeley educators. The avowed goal of the S.L.A. is the overthrow of
"corporate enemies of the people," i.e., people such as the Hearsts.
That women are playing an active leadership role in the S.L.A. is seen by Ms. Alexander as a manifestation of the
"women's revolution" in recent years, "the results of which are still not grasped" by the mainstream of American, so-

ciety.
The Hearst case is further evidence of the paranoia which has swept America in the past decade. It is yet another link in the seemingly endless chain of paranoia, exemplified by Sir- han Sirhan's attitude toward Robert Kennedy, Nixon's fear of Ellsberg, the Chicago police's shootout with Fred Hampton, and the mutually paranoid relationship between the White House and the press.
Another angle for the inter- pretation of the Hearst story is to consider it a "linguistic event." Ms. Alexander ob- served that everyone involved, from the victim, the Randolph Hearsts, the Hearst attorneys, Steven Weed (the fiance), and the S.L.A., was "talking a different language." The differences between the par- ticipants were so pronounced that negotiation on virtually any level of effectiveness was rendered all but impossible.
Finally, the Hearst abduction represents a "massive rip-off, a media coup d'etet. The S.L.A., in one well-executed move, seized the interest and atten- tion of the eager and excite- ment-starved mass media, and gained a coast-to-coast audi- ence for its activities and propaganda.
Following her address, Ms.
Alexander made preparations to fly to the west coast to begin work on a book about the Hearst story.

by Karen Gruschow The April 16 meeting of the Student Assembly was one of the most important meetings of the semester in that final nominations were taken for University committee positions and for Student Assembly officer positions. President Mies was also present for a forum. This meeting was attended by approximately 25 students.
The final nominations for Student Assembly officer posi- tions consisted of: for chairperson, Nikki Humphrey and Harris Kershnar, vice- chairperson, Stan Bucklin and Bill Fox, secretary, Stefanie Gray and David Chesnoff, and treasurer, Maria Balduzzi and Bernie Horan. University Council nominations included Ken Thompson, Bill Wilcox, Angie Autera, Karen Gruschow, Carolyn Allard, Kevin Martin, Jeff Gonzalez, Kim Burgenstock, Sue Titus, and David Chesnoff. Maria Balduzzi, Bob Frank, Stefanie Gray, Gail Fesko and Barb Rom were nominated for Student Hearing Board. Stage Five Master Plan Committee nomi- nations were Karen Gruschow, and Dave Gruder. Jim Tracy and Bob Frank were nominated for Student'Affairs Committee.
Bernie Horan was nominated for Library Planning Committee and Micheal O'Grady was nominated for the L.A. Curri- culum Committee.
Other business besides nominations included the est- ablishment of an ad hoc committee to develope and distribute a questionnaire for the purpose of collecting statistical information on the quality and relevancy of health care services at Alfred Univer- sity. There was an emergency vote to receive Al Louenstein, a candidate for Congress, for $75 to $150 (depending on the number of times he speaks).
Paul Cahn announced that the Iroquois Telephone Co., as a result of pressure brought upon
it from the S.A. proposal to get students to pay their bills escrow, is reconsidering its position concerning the rules that apply only to students living on-campus.
President Miles
After a brief introduction, President Miles discussed the procedures and conduct of the Presidential search and the profile being established for the prospective candidates.
The Board of Trustees hopes to elect the new president in November of 1974. When asked about the possible extended interim between his leaving office and a new president taking office, Mies replied, "I am unable to answer this question because the Board has declined to address itself to this question at this point. The Board wants to get on with the search . . .It's my intention to impress this question on the Board." The options, for this interim, ac- cording to Miles are, a collective cabinet leadership, and acting president selected by the Board or a trustee who will function in some leader- ship capacity. "I'm sure that by early summer a decision in this regard will be made."
The President was also asked about why the Learning Resources Center was sus- pended from construction indefinitely. He replied that it was temporarily deferred until the "money is in hand." He referred to the financial status of the University that resulted from building Openhym and the Science Center when adequate funds were not available. He said, "We're not going to build a building until we've got the money in hand or in sight." In reference to Watergate, the President discussed the American economy and spirit as it reflects on gifts to colleges.
The rest of the forum became questions about the admission standards, caliber of Alfred University students and attri- tion rates.

Woman Engineer: Still a Novelty
Pert, pretty, given to slacks and sweaters, Anna McHale is very much part of the casual life style that permeates the campus of Alfred University in Western New York.
She is also highly disciplined, career oriented and soon to embark on her first full-time job as an $ll,000-plus research engineer for the Western Electric Company, production arm of the Bell Telephone System.
"Being a woman right now in engineering is a guaranteed meal ticket-if you're good,"
says the 20-year-old senior in the Division of Engineering and Science of the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University.
"But if you don't produce, I don't think you'll stay for long."
James R. Tinklepaugh, him- self a ceramic engineer and also job placement counselor for the College of Ceramics, confirms that finding industrial employment for women is no problem: "The field is wide open."
And as for Miss McHale, the only coed in this year's 75-member June graduating class of ceramic scientists and engineers, Tinklepaugh volun- teers this assessment: "She's sharp-right near the top of the class. Anna's gone through in three years and I think she'll make a fine riesearch engin- eer."
Meanwhile, the College Placement Council of Bethle- hem, Pa., is reporting sharply increased competition among employers for both women and men in a broad range of engineering disciplines. The council said job offers were up 50% over last year, with the highest average yearly salary,
$12,000, going to chemical engineering candidates.
Miss McHale, however, re- mains unblinking about what she sees as her "minority"
status. "Federal regulations on minority hiring are forcing the companies to go after women,"
she asserts.
"If they can get the best ones, they'll take them. If they can't get the best ones, they'll take anyone-they have a quota to fill and there are only so many women around."
She recalls a summer job last year for which, she says, she was hired "solely because I was a woman." It was a program designed to familia- rize prospective engineers with industrial operations at a ceramics firm in Massachu- setts.
"We had the greatest collec- tion of minorities you ever say:
two or three white males out of a group of 12, all the rest inner-city blacks, Puerto Ri- cans, and me—the only woman engineer."
Miss McHale rejects the notion that her apparently favored status constitutes an unfair competitive advantage over men. "I'm* qualified. I don't feel that I'm taking a job away from anyone. Men are
till being hired."
Women in engineering and cience are still something of a lovelty, she says, adding that inly in the past two or three /ears have they begun to be
actively recruited by industry.
"If the women now in industry prove they are as good as men. there will be no problem if government regula- tions on minority hiring should change or become weakened, or if women cease being a minority," she argues.
"Industry will continue to hire women if they show they make good employes in respon- sible positions."
The grey-eyed, red-haired Miss McHale makes her home in Rutherford. N.J. Her father is an executive with the engineering division of the Otis Elevator Corporation, her mother a learning-disabilities teaching supervisor. By her own account Miss McHale grew up in an atmosphere that encouraged education and career goals for women.
At Pascack Valley High School in Hillsdale, N.J., she found mathematics and science
"fun." Applying to Alfred University, she intially con- sidered majoring in industrial or commercial design but switched to ceramic science- which differs from engineering in its emphasis on research- when she discovered the scope
of programs in the discipline.
At Western Electric's En- gineering and-Research Center in Princeton, N.J., Miss McHale will be one of a dozen or so engineers experimenting with ceramic materials used in electronic circuitry and the memory cores of computers.
She says she enjoys the challenge of working "on re- search problems susceptible of practical solutions. She sees her role as a researcher more in its applications to production problems than as a purely
'intellectual scientific exercise.
Miss McHale professes no strong views on Women's Lib.
She savs "most of the women I've found in industry are capable of competing with men on their own terms." But she is quick to admit she appreciates the normal courtesies a man pays to a woman.
She concedes that hostility to women engineers continues to exist among some men in industry. Still, she says, she is not concerned. "Most com- panies try nol to place a woman engineer in a position when; she would run into resistance. Companies need c o o p e r a t i o n to get things done."
Her plans for the future?
She says Western Electric will send her to Stanford University in California next fall to begin graduate studies in materials science—metals, ceramics and plastics. After that, she'll return to her job.
If Anna McHale thinks about marriage and a family, she's not talking about them. Right now her sights are on profes- sional goals.
"Research for me is going to be a learning process—often you're not aware of what you know until yDu have to use it.
But I'm, confident I'm equipped to cope wfth the field. And so far as i can see, I'm going to stay in industry."

As We Float Down the River Alfred...
Without a Paddle Conserve N.Y.S.Heritage
/
by Robert S. Carlish I was once told by a high
1 school English teacher that Anyone could abuse the privi-
lege of poetic license. Well, after faithfully reporting fea- tures to the student body for close to a year and a half, I hereby initiate the beginning of my poetic license. I would like to cal I it, As We Float Down the River Alfred.... Without A Pad- dle. Although this week may only be the first installment, rest assured that by the end of this semester, I will have managed to discuss every aspect of Alfred the way It REALLY is (and lose every friend I've got in the process.)
THE STORY BEHIND OUR SINKING CAMPUS Four years at Alfred has enabled me to hear every rumor, every "fact", and every tale imaginable about certain truths of Alfred. One of the more pronounced issues has been the supposed concern about certain edifices on campus sinking slowly into the ground, rates of sinkage, of course, varying according to size of structure, location, etc..
Naturally, the administration has tried on numerous occas-
k sions to discredit this belief, but I would like to set the record officially straight once and for all.
Yes, many, if not most, of the buildings on the campus are sinking. The force behind this situation, however, does not come from faulty building practices, or improper land development, or even unwise campus planning practices.
The major blame for these buildings to be sinking comes from the girls on campus.
Permit me to explain.
Imagine, if you will, the sheer number of girls on the ' Alfred University campus at any
one time. The number comes close to about 800 or so.
Furthermore, it is not incon- ceivable that approximately 85 - 90% of these girls are, to some extent, overweight. Assuming, from observation, that the average girl imagines herself to be anywhere between 10 to 20 pounds overweight, simple arithmetic will reveal that, because of this condition, the campus (and conseqùently the buildings on it) must bear the burden of an excess 14,400 pounds!! A force as great as this cannot be ignored when considering the structural in- tegrity of the dormitories, classrooms, dining halls, etc.
To salvage what can be saved, I propose that, rather than having the university shell out huge sums of money in an attempt to strengthen these weakened foundations or even having to replace these sinking structures, we call for the administration to institute an Annual Reducing Office, whose responsibility it would be to make sure that each and every overweight girl be placed on a reducing program, which would, of coursé, be available for credit if so desired (probably the equivalent of a fulj semester half-course).
The ensuing weight loss on campus would accomplish three purposes:
f It would alleviate the afore-
photo by Jim Wilterdink mentioned stress on university buildings.
fl It would cut down on tne amount of food consumed during any particular meal, with a possible reduction in meal- plan costs.
il It would finally end all the pointless whining about how overweight they had been, thereby permitting more time for useful, meaningful conver- sation.
PRESERVE NA TURE — IN THE MUSEUM During the week of March 17 to 23, the Architectural Stand- ards Society (the A.S.S.) was touring the Alfred University campus, on invitation by certain administrators to show off the progress we have made in regards to recent structural additions to the university.
This past Tuesday, their final report was made public.
Although too lengthy to repro- duce in full, it is extremely appropriate for certain, more explicit phrases to be present- ed in defense of our campus plan.
"We, the members of the Alfred University A.S.S. evalu- ation team examined, in full, every structure on the campus pertinent to our study.
"Although, among the 14 of us on the committee, we have close to 450 years of combined experiences in the field of architecture, we must admit that we have never seen a more
mismatched conglomera- tion of buildings within a one square-mile plot. Exten- sive research has enabled us to define the assorted architecture in only one way:
Early American Miscellaneous.
"One member of our party, who had served a short prison term a number of years ago for a minor offense, broke into a cold sweat and began shouting hysterically, "I won't go back there! You can't make me go back!" when we were touring the section of campus where Barresi, Cannon, Reimer and Tefft dormitories are situated.
To say the least, we had difficulty restraining him.
"We were very impressed with the transportation facili- ties offered at the university
until we discovered that what we had thought to be small aircraft runways were, in reality, pedestrian walkways.
Nevertheless, the intentions were there.
"We found the historical richness of the campus a refreshing change of pace from the "neo-contemporary" styles adopted by many other institu- tions, but were somewhat appalled by the idea the university presented us with of making their Alumni Hall into a Burger King. Surely a better future can be found for this and other historical buildings.
"Although we recognize the necessity of constructing more buildings if an institution is to grow, we are not certain of the trend Alfred University is settirig in regards to the types of buildings they seem to want in reflecting the Alfred style of life. Our recommendation to them is twofold:
% Don't do any more building until you've decided upon a direction of transition,
fl Until you decide, walk around with your eyes closed."
College Bowl At Alfred
Here is a chance for you to test your knowledge and have a good time, too! You can win monetary awards of up to
$100.00 and a scholarship valued at $100.00 just by getting your friends together to compete against other teams in a game of quick thought and fast reflexes.
The College Bowl works this way: Previous to the start of the College Bowl Competition, the faculty submits questions which are interesting and challenging; ranging in all fields imaginable. They cover trivia and questions from fields of anthropology to history, Indian culture to pottery and T.V. shows to zoology.
The students set up teams consisting of 5 students (3 team members and 2 alternates) with a sponsoring organization (this can be a residence hall, club, fraternity, or academic department.)
The team's registration must be turned in by April 22 and they will be notified by April 26 of the night they will compete and against which other teams.
The nights of competition are April 29 and 30 and May 1,2,6,7,8 and 9 with final competition being held on May 13, 14, 15 and 16.
Each member of a winning team will receive $100.00, and the alternates of the winning team and the sponsor of the team will receive $50.00. The Alumni-Association has estab- lished a scholarship for the person with the highest point total for the number of games participated in during the competition.
If you are interested in winning some extra money on the side by testing how much you know against other stu- dents, be sure to fill out a registration form and turn it in by April 22 to either the Student Affairs Office or Brooke Sullivan Head Resident in Phillips Hall. If you have any other questions call Brooke Sullivan at 871-2292.
Ideas to preserve, enhance, or cultivate the urban and rural environments of New York State may be worth $1500 each under a competition sponsored by the newly crea- ted Preservation League of New York State with support from the New York State Council on the Arts.
Called "Unique New York,"
the program invites individuals throughout the State to submit proposals on fostering com- munity amenities, interpreting and promoting the values of neighborhoods and town cen- ters, halting environmental decay and otherwise enhanc- ing aspects of the environment.
To apply, an individual must submit a feasible plan or project idea. Such projects may relate to zoning, communi- ty facilities and activities, performing and visual arts, education, publications and studies—in short, anything and everything that affects com- munity aesthetics and living.
"Environmental Arts is a relatively new area, a vast open-ended field," explained Kathleen Reardon, acting co- ordinator of the "Unique New York" competition. "It touches on such areas as architectural, economic and social history, public art, planning, zoning ordinances and real estate decisions. If individuals develop a sense of futility in dealing with aspects of their environments, it is largely because their ideas have no outlets and no authority. We believe there is a vast reservoir of environmentally productive ideas residing in the citizens of New York State. We want to encourage the realization of those ideas."
To be considered, each application must include the following:
• l The applicant's name, address, social security num- ber. telephone number (with area code) typed on the first page.
• 2 A brief (one or two page, typewritten, double spaced)
description of the idea or project, including the signi- ficance of the project to the community.
• 3 A statement of how the individual will implement the proposal.
• 4 An explanation of public use or recognition of the project.
• 5 A detailed budget for implementing the project. The budget must not amount to more than $1,500.
Entries must be mailed before June 15, 1974, to:
Unique New York, Room 501, 250 West 57th Street, New York, New York 10019.
Applications will be evalua- ted by a panel of experts affiliated with the Preservation League of New York State.
Ms. Reardon gave examples of possible project ideas. "We might receive a proposal to plan for the conversion of unused commercial space to non-profit, consumer-con- trolled vegetable gardens.
Another might be a plan to develop a set of zoning proposals for preserving a community's architecturally beautiful structures. Someone might want to create a network of bridle or bicycle paths of wasted space produced by public utility lines, or do a slide or photographic project to reveal the changing economic significance of a waterway.
Still another idea might be to call attention to little noticed architectural details by lighting cupolas, pediments and cor- nices of old buildings on a Main Street."
The Preservation League of New York, sponsor of the competition, is concerned with the e nvironmental heritage of the State—its structures, neighborhoods and vistas.

The Gay Academic Unmasks
Reprinted by permission of THE CHRONICLE OF HIGHER EDUCATION, February 25, 1974, Volume VIII, Number 21.
BY Louie Crew
For centuries the academy in the West has made quite clear the only terms on which gay persons could be accepted professionally at any level:
complete invisibility. Gay men and women have been forced to pass as straights. Our unique sexual orientation has been shoved into a closet.
Many of us have learned thus to survive, even to prevail, some of us even to forget, except for very frantic mo- ments, that we really are gay.
By playing the game of invisibility we have held every possible position of leadership;
we have been major forces in the arts, -in literature, in science, in technology, in every discipline. Some of us have even grown smug with the awareness that more and more generations of straight aca- demics are now enlightened by mild doses of psychological liberalism. Straights now sometimes even tolerate our few accidental lapses into public visibility. Furthermore, there seem to be fewer scandals, fewer arrests for
"moral turpitude." The media have helped by defining our place. We and the general public have been told that gays can now frequent clubs of our own. The impression is that there is now less risk of blackmail when academics discreetly go to such places.
Some gays argue that we have never had it so good, that we now even have power.
Many straights concur, even saying that gays have too much power, that too many bosses are gay and that straights often learn too late the sexual politics of the game of invisibility. The one constant is the game itself, invisibility, passing, closeting, wearing the heterosexual mask, reassuring straights that all is really right with the world.
From the Anglo-Saxon hal are derived the three modern English words, whole, hale (healthy), and holy. So much is sexuality a part of one's wholeness that some of us are now questioning whether we can ever be hale, much less holy, so long as the academy and the society require our sexual invisibility.
While straights themselves have a very unimpressive record of establishing publicly their wholeness, their situation is not exactly parallel to that of gays. In the Western culture most people assume that a.
person has a heterosexual orientation unless he indicates otherwise. The price for indicating otherwise remains typically the complete disen- franchisement, the removal of the offending gay from the academy. Merely to assert that one is gay has been taken regularly as a radical confron- tation worthy if not of medieval torture, at least of absolute oblivion. Very recent history reminds all that the Nazis baked gays by the thousands and that a morally bankrupt academy (not to mention
Judaism and Christianity) has yet to raise even a whimper of protest.
Small wonder, then, that so many gays accept invisibility.
Gays have played the game so long that there is very little gay community, almost no gay family. Despite the stingiest estimate that close to two in ten of all persons have had some gay sexual encounters, most gays, like most straights, get their verbalized understanding of their gay experiences from books written by straights.
Such is the censorship in the so-called helping professions that even now a candidly gay identity will bring dismissal from almost any graduate school of psychology, social work, psychiatry, or the pasto- ral ministry. The few gay writers who do gain accept- ance are often those that either reaffirm theories of straights or otherwise serve straights' prurient entertainment.
It seems time that all of us, gays and straights alike, proclaimed that the very requirement of invisibility is the real perversion. One has absolutely no responsibility as to what activates his body chemistry, but must be allowed every responsibility about the way in which he treats persons to whom he is attracted.
As a gay professor. I feel an obligation to free straight colleagues and students from their logical misconceptions about my sexual identity. A five-minute statement at the beginning of the term is sufficient. I feel no need to indulge in long accounts of my personal sexuality. Yet so much is passion—including sexual passion—a part of my learning experience and judg- ment that I feel my students and colleagues have a right to know the source of my biases.
Just as important, my own growth as a whole person demands such clarity.
It is not as if sexuality is really forbidden in the class- room, particularly for those of us who teach literature. I could hardly teach most literary works adequately without re- ferences to sex, both gay and straight. Particularly vicious has been the systematic way in which great gay writers have themselves been forced to pass for straights in the standard texts. In discussing gay writers as gays, I would only compound the confusion and deprive my students of my special vantage if I were to refer to the writers with the pronouns they, them, and their when I really mean we, us, and our.
Of course, I am but one of many gay academics now asking for the right to be whole persons on the job. Recently, over Thanksgiving, 325 of us met in New York City at the first national conference of the Gay Academic Union, with the theme "Scholarship and the Gay Academic Experience." f Such dialogues are beginning all over the country. The call is clearly for sexual honesty, from straights and gays alike. To reveal a hidden sexual identity with pride is tantamount to saying, "I have my guts on the table; where are yours?" The result, it is to be hoped, will be
discovery, not just more power politics.
Gay intellectual honesty is one of the first good breezes in the rancid air of the academy in years. It could well open many new discussions about sexuality and the total human experience to enrich human experience for decades. At the very least, thousands of other bay brothers and sisters in the academy and elsewhere may not need to remain lonely, alienated, and afraid for as long as some of us chose to do.
When I informed my Georgia classes and administration of my gayness, one of the persons most visibily affected was a closeted gay friend. In tears he proclaimed, "I respect the hell out of you, but I resent the implication that others can have no integrity without so doing. I could never take off my clothes before so many people who don't give a damn. I can't even tell my wife! And closet is such a fierce word, so very unfair: it makes me feel that everything I am is insignifi- cant!"
The closet is indeed a frightening place. The decision to leave it is a very personal one, clearly not one that anyone should be pressured into. In a culture as stifling as ours, many gay persons may never feel safe to come out.
Only six months ago. at 36, I would have committed suicide had more than a select few known about my gayness. For me only the love and support of one great man. together with the rallying of increasing numbers of gays and straights, gave me the impetus completely to decloset. Each person knows best his own timetable.
Now uncloseted. like many others I have found the rewards richer than antici- pated. I am free forever from all threats and reality of blackmail. I no longer waste time wondering whether people like my well-fashioned mask of the "real me". I am free to get on with the important task facing all people, to develop my
"real me," which includes the sexual as well as the profes- sional simultaneously.
As a white man loving a black man in rural Georgia on a state black-college campus, I' have not suffered a single open reprisal in my six months here, nor has my lover, a business executive. Students have been very protective of both of us.
White and black colleagues have welcomed the opportuni- ties to discuss issues, to entertain us, to be entertained by us. One adminstrator has stated privately his admiration for my courage. Head counselors at the college have applauded my volunteering my services as a responsible, reasonable happy, very pro- ductive gay resource person available for talking with gays or with counselors. Extremely gratifying has been the report of one of the gay students, who said, "Things have changed for us since you've been here; we feel a lot better being who we are."
For me the anticipated risk most feared was always the rejection that I associated with visible gays. .Now visible
myself, I find myself not rejected. I have the pleasure of knowing that I am accepted for who I am. When the time comes for contract renewal or for tenure—well, that never was safe or a sure thing. I can sew, I can act, I can write, I can cook, I can dig ditches; in whatever field my, society forces me to survive, I will survive as a whole person. I know that I shall always somehow be teaching, and always learning in the context of my gay experience. Perhaps
the biggest lesson that I want to turn my attention to now is the genesis of the sick homophobia
rampant in our society. / fSee THE CHRONICLE, Dec.

Editorial. .
During the spring recess, the Board of Trustees devoted the better part of a weekend to deciding how Alfred University would select its new president.
The Board is now committed to trying to have a new president selected by the fall of this year.
The reason for this is clear - we want a new president as soon as possible. The problem, from the students' point of view, should become clear shortly.
The selection procedure is to culminate with lengthy on- campus interviews with the final three to five candidates chosen from a list of what should total approximately 100 nominations. These three to five individuals should be subject to the scrutiny of a good number of students, faculty, administration and staff when they come to campus. The problem is this: if the selection procedure runs on schedule, these visits by the candidates will take place during the summer. How many students who would be interested in meeting with the candidates are not going to be here on campus this summer? A good many, I presume.
But don't panic. The situation is not out of students' control—yet. Our potential power lies in the fact that the group doing most of the footwork connected with se- lecting the new president has students on it.. The group is known as the Liason Commi- ttee. The committee is comprised of three trustees and the entire Steering Comm-1 ittee of the University Council.
4ction Tough to Tickle Ivory
It is referred to as the Liason Committee because the group will act as campus advisors to the Trustee Executive Commi- ttee which has been designated the Search Committee by the Board of Trustees. But since the Executive Committee is comprised of busy, top execu- tives from around the country, they will in effect be leaving almost all the decisions to the Liason Committee.
Now, it seems to me that if we want a new president to be selecte by the fall, we could hold the on-campus interviews, the fianl phase of the selecting procedure before the rec- ommendations go before the Board of Trustees, as soon as students arrive back on camp- us in the fall. Things might be a bit rushed that way, but at least any student wishing input into the process would be able to meet the candidates.
On April 15, the Liason Committee will hold its first meeting. If you want more than three students to have some say as to who will be the next president of Alfred Uni- versity, let the three students on the Liason Committee, Bill Wilcox, Angie Autera, and Mark O'Meara, know how you feel. Or, if you don't know any of them, call up or see Molly Congelli, Associate Dean for Student Affairs. She's also on the Liason Committee.
Take the time to let these people know how you feel now-or don't complain next fall when you come back to campus to find out that a new president has already been selected.

Q: Could you please find out why the Music Dept. is forced to contend with seven sub- standard pianos? I am looking for action in getting at least four new pianos for the use of the entire student body. Some of the pianos have notes which will not play because of broken hammers and several have cracked sounding boards ma- king the pianos useless and unrepairable.
A: It has been announced that the Performing Arts Dept.
is now going to be buying a new piano. Of course, one new piano is not enough, consider- ing the inexcusible shape most of the pianos are in. Other sources of money are being sought, according to Dr. David Ohara, chairperson of the PA Dept. The problem, of course, is money. An upright practice piano costs in the vicinity of
$850 and a baby grand costs about $1400. The Music Faculty is not in favor of buying used pianos because they could be costly in terms of upkeep and repair.
The question now is where the money will be coming from to buy more than the one piano already approved. The prob- lem is now sitting in the laps of Dean Taylor, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, and Dr.
Barton, Vice President for Academic Affairs. Dr. Ohara feels that the cost of buying new pianos is too great to be absorbed by the present PA budget. In fact extra monies for repairs of the present pianos had to come in part, from Dean Taylor's budget this year.
Dr. Ohara stressed that is has been student concern which prompted the approval of the money for the one new piano; he and the PA faculty had voiced their concern all this year, but it was not until students started cyring out that some action was taken.
This is a perfect example of the potential power that could be in the hands of the students if we only chose to use it. More money for purchasing pianos will mystically turn up if students care enough to exert their power. There are petitions circulating concern- ing this problem—sign one.
Students brought the issue up last night at the Academic Affairs Committee meeting.
Publicity of the problem is occurring through The Fiat. If we cry loud enough, something substantial WILL be done about the situation.
Help do some of the crying and watch it happen!

Gay Libs Retract Accusation
Letter to the Editor:
In a recent letter to The Fiat, Alfred Gay Liberation accused ZBT of sending some of their pledges to a Gay Liberation meeting as a prank. Having failed to ask ZBT what their ntent was behind this action, we of Gay Liberation were unfair to the members of the fraternity. As a result, we have created quite a bit of ill-feeling, the extent of which we were not aware of until recently.
We of Alfred Gay Liberation wish to sincerely apologize to members of ZBT as we should have realized that what we thought was a "prank" was actually in the best of educa- tional intentions. We hope that in the future that we of Alfred Gay Liberation may be more open minded and willing to listen to the opinions of other groups on campus.
Though we admit that we were wrong after talking with several ZBT brothers, our error gave none of them a justifiable reason to call any member of Gay Liberation derisive or derogatory names, which did happen for quite a while.
Antagonism is no way to reach understanding. Hope- fully we can end the antago- nism on both sides here.
Alfred Gay Liberation
when a class is using the room, (the room schedules are avail- able from the Performing Arts secretary)
There are many reasons that the practice rooms are always full, even to the point of 2 or 3 people wanting to use each practice room every hour.
While only 60 people are registered for piano lessons and at least that many taking lessons on other instruments, hundreds more like to play piano for their own enjoyment.
Many of the pianos in the dorms can't be used during the evening because of study hours, and most of these pianos in both the dorms and the practice rooms are substand- ard, older pianos, past repair from years of practicing.
Because of these reasons, I believe the Student Affairs Committee should purchase or help to purchase a new piano which would be used by many students.
If people will use the old pianos and ask for the new pianos and more practice space which we need-A lot can happen.
La kin Notes Error
Dear Editor:
On page 2 of your April 12 issue you state that I was promoted to Assistant Profes- sor "as of September 1974,"
and that my tenure was granted "effective September 1974."
Neither assertion is correct;
both dates should read "Sep- tember 1973."
I would appreciate it greatly if you would print a correction in an upcoming issue. It should only require a few lines.
Sincerely yours, Michael J. Laldn [ED. NOTE: Sorry!!]
NOTICE...

The eligibility of those candidates on Federal Service Entrance Examination registers as of June 1, including those taking the test in the February to May period, will be extended thru December 31, 1974.

Consider the clues from a l l angles; they may CROSS you UP! The clue may be a pun on the word wanted, or an anagram of the word i t s e l f . Usually, the clue contains a definition (synonym) as well as a cryptic representation of the word.
Certain words may stand for letters in an anagram, e.g., NOTHING, TEA, SEE, WHY, YOU, and BE may rep- resent 0, T, C, Y, U, and B. The word could also be hidden in the letters of the clue, e.g., the phrase "human being rated as unthankful" contains the answer INGRATE. The word might be defined in two parts, e.g., a clue for FORESTER 1s "ranger In favor of organic compound" (FOR ESTER).
Write the words over the numbered dashes and then transfer each l e t t e r to the correspondingly numbered square in the diagram. Black squares indicate word endings. The completed diagram w i l l contain a quotation reading from l e f t to r i g h t . The f i r s t l e t t e r of the answered words w i l l give you the author's name and t i t l e of the work from which the quote comes.
